Mr.. Bailey Davenport is engaged in the
commendable endeavor to have the Rock
river in this vicinity stocked with fish.
There is an annual appropriation of Sl5,-
900 allowed by congress 20 furnish spawn
for the different streams, ard the allow
ance for Rock river has always been de,
posted IN the vicinity of Rockford, and
no benefit derived down this far Mr.
Davenport has written to Fish Commits
sioner Bartlett in regard to the matter,
and has also called his attention to the
fact that the dams are not provided with
fish ladders, as contemplated by law.
Mr. Davenport wants some spawn put in
the river at Barstow, and thus provide
the fishermen of this vicinity with good
sport in the future. 1t is to be hoped
that he will succeed in his endeavor.

The future of Rock Island never looked brighter
than it does to-day, and there never was a time
when there was confidence manifested among
our citizens. The so-caled Blooms of some
Western towns have had their day, and caught
their victims, and now the sober second sense is
turning, and with it the desire to locate in cities
which have not been built in day and swept away
in a night.

A Big Find.

BUFFALO, Jan. 3l.-Conductor Charles
McGinty, who runs tram No. 4 on the
Niagara Falls branch Of the New York
Central, and Bsggagemaster Bernarn, Of
the same train, discovered a package of
United States bonds, worth $4,000, stick
ing through the handle Of canvas COW
cred trunk in the baggage car yesterday.
They searched the train for the owner and
found that the bonds belonged to an old
lady who was travelling with her grand
daughter, Mrs. Ayers, Of Canada. The
old lady had put the bonds under the can
vas cover some months ago and forgotten
them. The ladies were greatly excited
over, the narrow escape from losing the Sc.
curities, but they did not offer the train
men any reward for their honesty. 10

Gladstone on Ireland.

LONDON, Jan. sl.-Mr. Gladstone, in an
other article in the February number Of
the Nineteenlh Century,, contends that
though Ireland formerly gained conccs.
slons from England through fear, an At
tempt by Ireland to repeat her former
tactics would be like warning against
heaven now. England's strength, com.
pared with 1relaRd'a is as ten to one. He
would rather rely, he says, upon England's
innate sense of Justice. Mr.. Gladstone
defends the American donations to Ire
land on the ground that they have done
much TO staye of famine. "Foreign dona-
tlons," he says, IF in aid OF bad cause,
make it a shade worse, but il in good
cause, serve to remind us OF our duty"
To the contentious that the granting Of
home rule to Ireland would be to hand
the Government over to the Nationalist,
Mr.. Gladstone replies that II Nationalism
is to prevail 1t is unwise to exasperate it
to spirit Of vengeance. 3 F!l7lif,

Has Some More Interesting observations.
West Virginia Orc Fields.
Mr.. P. Il. Moore, t"Cold Shorty the
we'll known correspondent from this sec'
ton OF the ST. Louis Age Of Steel, in hi
last communication has the following,
which will DO warmly appreciated by
many:
~ observe that Pittsburgh and Wheel
ing manufacturers rely on outside points
for the most important parts Of the me.
chanical equipments OF their mills and
iactories, or at least they send their orders
to distant cities. This, 1t strikes me, fol
iron and steel manufacturing centres, Of
world wide prominence and assumptions
Is anomalous II not paradoIical. Where
there has been 60 much extraordinary
mechanical genius, ability and experiences
developed, with both ample capital and
intelligent enterprise ready and anxiouf
to assist in bringing all meritorious plans
prccesses, devices aud schemes into prac'
ticsble and profitable utility there should
be no lack of talent and skill for tho de
yising and building OF machinery, and ]
do not believe there Is. Foreign articles
like stolen sweets, seem to receive the
highest appreciation, and this is very
poor philosophy, .worae policy and utter
want OF Judgment. A community as
sumingto be supereminent= in great in.
dustry should BE- vigilant in bringing all
the departments, al the migrants, all
the auxiliaries Of this industry up to the
highest point Of excellence; elae Their
boasted reputation is Notwithstanding
but bald assumption, for it is incomplete
the connection is faulty; its strength is aE
that OF chain, whose integrity is to be es
timated only at the strength Of its weakest
link" So
In another paragraph no has the follow.
ing: 1.-THE Virginia and West Virgins
manganese ore fields are again attracting
the attention Of Bsssemer steel makers
There are several valuable deposits in
West Virginin, said to assay rich in this
desirable specially, to which my atten
ton has been requested, but they arc moi
ensily accessible, as they are too far from
railroads; however, If progress and devel
opment continue at the rate they have re.
corded during tho past two years, theae
mines will come into the market before
long. In a purely sympathetic vein, l feel
like condoling with the Alabama land by.
perbolists, who have been preparing to
upse. the prominence of this district with
the inconceivably rich and universally
adaptable and applicable iron ores OF the
Birmingham district The recent action
OF the Roane Iron Company Of Chatta.

bic in bad shape. Their ore is beyond

lean. There is likely to be goodly lot OIL
